Assignment #1 Interview 2 adults and ask them to describe their hometown as if they were a tour director. (open response rubric) Mother's Interview:
"When I was a child growing up in the town of Medford, MA everyone knew everyone that was within walking distance. No one was a stranger and everyone got along with the whole neighborhood, even if you just moved there you knew about five people within the first hour of being there. I lived in Medford all of my childhood and there wasn't much to do, although there was a forest across the street from my house that I would go into with my parents and siblings and go for a walk and explore what was there.
Father's Interview: "When I was a child growing up in Miami, Florida I had a rough life in my neighborhood. If you were not tough enough to take care of yourself and defend yourself from people then you did not have a good life growing up. In my neighborhood it was basically fend for yourself and learn how to be an independent person, taking care of yourself, defending yourself from bullies or people who were bigger than you. I grew up in Miami until I was in my teen years and it was difficult, since I was on my own at the age of 15, taking care of myself and my two brothers by making sure that we had some place to stay and food to eat.
